The Thursday Thirteen – 02/05/2015

Valentine’s Day. It’s creeping up on us. Silently. Well, as silent as a holiday can be when it’s all decked out in pink and red sequins and feathers, smelling like a florist shop, and bursting out of its seams with chocolate. These are just a few of the gift ideas I’m in love with this year. I may, or may not, have bought a few of these for some of the special people in my life. Shhh. It’s a secret. Some of these merchants are on my list of favorites, and a few are ones that I’ve just discovered and fallen madly for. The one thing that most of them have in common is that they are small businesses, and believe in making a better product for a reasonable price. I kind of love that idea, and I know many of you will too.
